Need help with PCI Express X-Fi Xtreme Audio - Vista

Hi, bought this card pci exprss x-fi xtreme audio and installed, had a lot of problems in vista 64. Using a logitech z5500 5. soundsystem and first tried using the optical spdif to get DTS etc working but to no joy... Started using the 3.5 kables but nothing there either. And I cant find options to set the treble and base? the sound is really medioker as it is now.
Using the latest drivers for the card issued in may 08, latest alchemy and console files. what to do?
Dave?

To Collipa and Dudeface:
If you installed the support pack for the card but still have driver problems, have you used windowsudpate under Windows 7? Creative submitted a basic driver for the card that shows up in driver options under Windows Update. If you can let Windows Update install that driver, then you can update AFTER rebooting with the new one.
If that windowsupdate did not work, try this:
Download the newest driver for your card. Then, if you already have winace, winzip, winrar or even the free 7Zip, then you can right click that Creative executable file and then choose to........extract to......and do so to a temporary folder on your desktop or say, c:\Creative driver.
Then go to device manager and sound video and game controllers, and to your problem sound card, click driver, and update driver and browse my computer for software, and "let me pick"? and "have disk" and then browse to.......
C:\Creative driver\Install\wdm
Whereever you downlaoded the file to, the important directory is the INSTALL\WDM and choose OK and it should show Creative X-FI. Let it copy files, and it does take awhile, and then reboot and see if your sound card works.
here is the newest driver for your card:

Need help with Airport Express and so on.

Ok so my main problem before getting into what I need help with here is that our MacBooks and now my iPhone 6 plus isn't staying online. Keep getting booted off and then I either have to select the network again or it will eventually go back on. If anyone has a solution or so please feel free to answer that as well. I'm running on Roadrunner with a Netgear 600 wireless router and a motorola modem. Both of which I'll leave the link to below for a better look.
My Main Question: So I'm looking at a new wireless router mainly and possibly a new modem. I know Apple products are trustworthy but how good is the Airport Express and other Airport products. Also what is the Maximum speed and Maximum data speed for the cheapest express station and if anyone knows the speeds of the other devices it would be greatly appreciated.

DSL Router to Netgear 5-port Switch and I used the switch to connect to Airport Extreme, TV, Blue-Ray DVD player and DirecTV Receiver.
The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) is a router so it will do what you need.
You need to reconfigure your setup. Connect the WAN port of the AEBS to the DSL router. Then connect the Netgear switch to one of the LAN ports on the AEBS. The AEBS will properly share the connection.

PCI Express X-FI Xtreme Audio - Mic and mixer problems

6PCI Express X-FI Xtreme Audio - Mic and mixer problems' Trouble started two days ago when I updated to the latest X-FI drivers. Now I have no mixer and I can't figure out how to get my mic to work. The only thing that has changed is the updating of drivers. I am using senheiser headphones with mic for use on ventrillo. In the old set up I could go into the mixer and tell the software that the Line-In was a mic and it would work perfectly. Now I can't get the mic to work at all since there is no creative mixer. The windows mixer doesn't allow you to do anything worth wild.
I don't have the old software so I can't go back to the old setup. I am using Vista 64. What the heck am I doing wrong? Why won't the software now recognize that I am plugging in a mic!?!?!?
BAH!!!!
PLEASE HELP!

Doesn't Vista have some sort of automatic checkpointing feature that gives you a way to back up to a point before you updated the drivers?

Need help enabling PCI Express graphics slot on HP envy 700. HELP!

Hello, My name is Patrick. Im 14 and I need sombodys help. Before you finish reading and your about to leave a suggetion for me, Im ONLY 14 and im not that good with cpu WORDS. For instince, I had to search up what the pci express graphics slot was xD. Last time i tried to do this i had to call mutiple numbers that led me to breaking my cpu. If anybody could leave STEP-BY-STEP instructions to enable that pci express graphics i would be very appretiated. Now here are the things i know for sure. This craphics card is a Geforce 650 graphics card that i know for a fact can work on my Hp Envy desktop. I have enought power suplyage to power sed Graphics card. So I already know how to insert the card, But thats pretty much it. I dont know if i have to have the External graphics card in while enabling the pci graphics. So Please be very discrptive while you answer this. I have already failed once, and had to send in my cpu to the repair station in hp. THAT TOOK 15 DAYS! It is expose to be on my front porch in 2 days. The grapics card is a $115 dollar item that i do not want to return because it seems that it can improve my frames while playing my Video games. So if anybody could help me with this i would be very thankful. Just leave the steps down below in VERY discriptive words that a 14 year old would understand. Thank you. Lastly I know what the bios is and also how to get there. Thats is all, THANKS YOU I forgot to tell you. The BIGEST PROBLEM I HAD IS whenever i plugged in my graphics card it would show a black screen on my moniter as i would boot it Up. I need help getting that picture

Hi:
Did you change the required BIOS settings before you installed your new video card?
If not, please follow the instructions at the link below...
http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03653200
If that doesn't get the video card to work, unfortunately, I don't have any other suggestions for you to try.

S/PDIF options for PCI Express X-Fi Xtreme Audio sound card non-existant!

Hey guys, I've been searching around for this for a while now and I still come up with anything...
I currently have a PCI Express Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio sound card installed in my PC, and this cound card has a built-in optical output port. I have been trying to set the sound card to use this port and I still can not find anyway around it.
I have searched the support pages and they always go back and say that I can enable audio on that port using the Digital I/O icon in the media console (I'm in Entertainment mode btw, doesn't seem like I can change that). However, I don't have that icon present in my media console. I tried upgrading drivers, updating software but still to no avail
So right now i'm running Windows XP (32-bit) and what seem to be the latest software and drivers for this card, and none of this is making any sense to me and so I believe that I am going mad!
I am honestly starting to believe that the port is just there for decoration...

This seems to be a fairly common issue across out in the market.
Do you not think it would be worth while chasing this down internal to Creative and sharing the solution with everyone?
Pointing us one at a time to support for what should be readily available drivers doesn't make a lot of sense.

Need help with regular expression

I'm trying to use the java.util.regex package to extract URLs from html files.
The URLs that I am interested in extracting from the HTML look like the following:
<font color="#008000">http://forum.java.sun.com -
So, the URL is always preceeded by:
<font color="#008000">
and then followed by a space character and then a hyphen character. I want to be able to put all these URLs in a Vector object. This doesn't seem like it should be too difficult but for some reason I can't get anywhere with it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Need help with Regual Expressions

I need to validate for the following invalid characters in Java: ! @ # $ ^ * + = { } [ ] | \ < > ?
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(" ") ?
What is the right approach to do that?
Thank you
Eugene

SolutionQuest wrote:
Thank you for your response.
My question was
What regular expression could be used to provide as a parameter to pattern.compile() that matches the listed characters?
Thank'sOkay, then my remark about the matches method applies: use that instead of Pattern.compile(...) (under the hood, it does the same). Go ahead and read the API docs of that method: it explains how to use it and also links to a document that explains a bit about the regex meta characters. Post back if you have tried something but failed. Please also post what you have tried so that others can point the error in your logic: it is the best way to learn.
Good luck.

Desperate needing help with HP Pavilion DV7-1450us HDMI audio output

I have tried a lot of different things to get audio output to my tv with no luck. I get video output fine. I notice when right-clicking the speaker on my taskbar there is no option to enable HDMI audio output any help is greatly appreciated as we are waiting to watch a movie <_< thanks.

Hi Sez,
Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall your AMD Graphics Driver package as this will also reinstall the AMD HDMI Audio driver- the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
Recovery Manager - Windows 8.
Recovery Manager - Windows 7
Recovery Manager - Windows Vista
After the reinstallation has completed, restart the notebook.

PCI Express X-Fi Xtreme Audio - Win7 FlexiJack

I just upgrade my PC to Window7 and installed the new driver.
For some reason, the FlexiJack will NOT recognise my mic on my headphone.
The output is always set to speakers without the option of setting it to headphone as well..
I am not able to set it to mic and when I right click to bring up the menu, the set to default is grey out? Right now.. it's just not happening..
Can someone please advise me what I could be doing wrong?
BTW - there is no flexijack tab in the creative audio control panel.

This seems to be a fairly common issue across out in the market.
Do you not think it would be worth while chasing this down internal to Creative and sharing the solution with everyone?

PCI Express X-Fi Xtreme Audio dissapears in Windows 7

I use a Mac Pro and run Windows 7 under bootcamp. Previously, Vista recognized the same audio card on the same machine. When I switched to Windows 7 I didn't see the X-Fi appear under audio devices, however after several attempts it finally 'found' the X-Fi board and it functioned properly. The problem is the X-Fi keeps 'disappearing' from Windows 7. When I re-boot it 'finds' it again but then after a short period of time loses it again.
Any ideas as to why it finds it and it functions briefly after a re-boot then disappears again shortly after that? Thanks,
Wally

PCI Express X-fi Xtreme Audio - missing functions - Windows 7 64-bit

Trying to restore functionality to this card in Windows 7 64-bit. After i installed the card and the latest beta drivers from Creative, there seems to be no Gamer Mode option and in games such as Battlefield 242 and Bioshock i cannot select EAX options. All i can use is Entertainment mode. Also the Crystalizer doesn't make things clearer - all it does is make my songs go quiet/loud/quiet/loud/quiet/loud.
Any ideas folks?

Need Help With Download For Airport Express

Ok, computer dummy here needing help with airport express. We were given airport express last night from a friend who recently purchased a newer gadget. He told us we would need to come here to download the operating system. I see lots of links to updates but no links for someone like me who has never had anything like this on my computer before. Does anyone know what link I would need to use? We have a pc with windows XP. Thanks so much for your help!

Hello jesschambers. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) doesn't have an "operating system" per se, but it does have built-in firmware which pretty much is the same thing. In addition, in order to administer the AX, you will need the AirPort Admin Utility for your Windows PC.
Here are the links for the latest versions of both:
o AirPort Express Firmware Update 6.3 for Windows
o AirPort 4.2 for Windows
